Ignored and Misunderstood Scriptures - 1 John 5:1 - Belief - New Birth, Which First?

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the correct order of salvation events, teaching that the new birth by the Spirit occurs prior to any act of belief. It refutes the common notion that belief causes the new birth, instead presenting belief as evidence of a completed new birth. Using scriptural references, especially from 1 John and the Gospel of John, the preacher highlights that salvation is entirely the work of God, with humans becoming active only after being born again. The sermon calls believers to understand and honor this divine process and live accordingly.
